Ongoing Diabolical Promotions

I wonder more who came up with the idea of calling a customer sexy bastard :eek:
I think Adam put that in to conceal his name in the message lol.....:thumbsup:
 
No matter how I look at it the Ikibu promos just still don't make any sense. Didn't Ikibu have a rep here? I wish they would chime in as to why their promos are literally trash.

I got an email that you get 50€ chip on Santa with 20€ deposit. At first glance that sounds great right? Max bet 5€ .. Okay sure. Max win 1000€ ... Bad but some might like it. Wagering: 15x max win. Not 15x of what you win with the chip, 15x max win and max win is 1k. Why is it even put elaborately like that? Why not just say that the wagering is 15000? So let me get this straight .. 20€ deposit for a 50€ bonus on Santa, with max bet of 5€ and a wagering of 15k?! Even if that 50€ chip resulted in a 5€ win, your wagering would still be 15k.

Oh but it doesn't end there. The max win on the chip is 1k, but the max withdrawal is 10x deposit. So deposit 20€, get 50€ bonus with 15k wagering, 5€ maxbet and max w/d is 200. What? I don't even...

yeah ikibu is just like that i really have no idea why people actually play there. Their rep was here shortly but obviously didnt like us telling him their bonuses are... well, to put it gently, horrible so he disappeared without a trace :p

by the way that bonus translates into

50 bonus with 300x wagering (!??!?!) and max win of 200.

for gods sake... just when you think youve seen it all :D Worst thing is they are trying to mask it behind bunch of different bonus T&C so its not that obvious at a first glance so people mistakenly take this bonus. Not sure if they have ukgc license or not, but this should be a no go (deceptive promotions) so if they do someone should report them.

I really hope they get a hefty fine for it, because its obvious they are doing it on purpose.

they really are banking on people not reading T&C because no sane person would ever take such a bonus.
 
This was my go to casino this year, deposited a fortune and was very loyal...
I didn’t get as much as 1 free starburst spin for Xmas.
In disgust I went into chat, was given a few seeds...
Totally disheartened, and next year sadly ikibu won’t be seeing any of my cash.
I’ve also mentioned the bonus offerings to the vip manager, clearly falls upon deaf ears.
Lovely agents and always pay, sadly the loyalty and Bonus’s have almost fully turned me off the place, shame.
 
I saw the same promo in my email and while the 50 bonus for a 20 deposit initially piqued my interest it quickly turned into disgust reading the terms. This is clearly a trap for the uninitiated not understanding the rules. The general bonus rules at Ikibu are already pretty bad but this is taking it to a whole new level. I'll definitely recommend everyone I know to stay away, these guys don't deserve new players.
 
Yeah... their VIP scheme was awful when I was on it. A deposit match. Gee, be still my beating heart.

Shout out for Highroller again. Got email saying they were being extra generous today. Thought, wow, maybe 20 spins? It was one again. So if that’s extra generous, what’s just normal? Half a spin? Pish.
if I got that I would go on chat and ask then exactly how is it extra generous. Then close my account for them taking the piss.

They are licensed by the UK but I don't know much about UK license and it's regulations so someone else might want to make a complaint.

On that note if you go to Ikibu's site and scroll down you'll see them advertise in big letters that they are Accredited at Casinomeister. Following that link - sure enough, they are. Now I'm not 100% up to speed what it means to be accredited but does this casino really deserve to be accredited even if they're trustworthy, with clearly misleading and confusing terms like these designed to trap newbies? Not to mention on the Accredited page it says that the casino must have an active rep at CM but their listed rep, Rafelito, was last active in March 2018. Or is it okay if the rep doesn't use the forums unless when summoned .. That is to say, when someone sends them a PM? I'm sure no one is sending him any PM's since the promotions are so bad no one's playing there to begin with.

I'm sure Ikibu is fine to play at if you only play with real money, but if you only play with real money I'm almost certain there are countless other casinos that offer better rewards for loyal players than Ikibu so even then why would you play there?

It's not Rafelito who is a rep now. Don't remember the other guys name.
When it comes to Ikibu and accreditation I've asked Bryan to look in to them and their terms three times now. I gave up because he never did.
It's just so much you can do...

Winston is the online vip manager, as for a rep I also informed the boss rafieloto went ages ago, he did reply and follow it up. As far as I’m aware there is a new rep.
But clearly isn’t active.
I was really complimentary to ikibu and the staff many times, sadly I’ve had enough of it now.

There is an introduction thread for the new rep where we scared him away. He still logs in though but I guess we're not that fun to deal with when we just question them. I'll see if I find it.
 
That’s the one, spoke to him via pm once and was passed onto a vip manager as he couldn’t help me :-/
Sadly think they are losing there way with the terrible offers and also very poor loyalty scheme, really a shame as the staff I always dealt with where lovely and helpful.
My faith in them now is about gone however.

The facts people have already mentioned here. Their misleading promotions, and also that their rules about bonus abuse is separate from normal bonus rules. If I read rules I wouldn't look at them since I'm not out to abuse anything. They are not very straight forward either which mean we can't know what they mean anyway.
I haven't trusted them since they owned Chance Hill and was going through the BBF here, but that is me and I'm not always someone to listen too I guess :)

They always where fair with me, never a issue.
But the loyalty and promos are seriously lacking, especially today with lack of my 1 free on starburst for thousands of deposits lol.
Lesson learned for me now, off to trada, rizk, VS or casumo for the rest of my slotting career

Odd. On Ikibu's accreditation page it still lists Rafelito as their rep. Clearly out of date. Can't imagine why Bryan is ignoring at least updating the info. @Casinomeister any comments?
 
If this is a sign of what's to come in 2019 than the CoS at VS is a blessing. :D

I am pretty sure we will see more of these re-adjusted offers where winnings are capped at a stunningly low amount. :oops:

Energy Casino headline - Start 2019 with a bang! :rolleyes:

Example: 100 dep + 25 bonus = 125 x 30 WR D+B = 3,750 total WR or 150x B

Should you then have one of those extra super lucky days where all stars align and had no black cat crossing your path to make it through the wagering requirement with some sort of balance, the maximum you are allowed to keep is EUR200. :machinegunner:

And Energy Casino is so gracious to let you have that BANG 4 times!!! ...Right, but thanks, no thanks! :rolleyes:
